He wants no smoke and he will get no credit at LW until he fights a good fighter at 135. Imagine what Lopez would do to Tank LOL. Utter obliteration. Tank wont fight Josh Taylor now either
Sorry does not apply. Unconscious bias clearly does apply which is why you guys are upset. If Tank publicly challenged someone the way Garcia did to him then run away like a crybaby and little ***** after the challenge was accepted you guys would be up in arms. Be honest and ask yourself why the double standards?
Excellent management and promotion by Mayweather Promotions and PBC I say. Tank was very young when he became world champion not the finished article inside and more importantly outside the ring so despite his world class talent with that equaliser power they decided to develop him. Smart move.
I've not mentioned Tank in this thread. In fact, I've not made a single comment over the past few days regarding what I think of him as a boxer. So how can you possibly assess 'double standards'? You have absolutely no clue what I think of him because you never asks questions, nor are you interested in anyone else's opinion if it deviates from yours, but simply bombard people with crudely-constructed diatribe. It has been your gormless observations which have attracted my ire recently not the subject matter per se. Also (according to you) Tank via an Ellerbe Tweet challenged Taylor - so-much-so you said the fight was 'highly likely' - and then started negotiations with Dias. Did he 'run away' too? I don't think so, but you should because you talk of double standards and can't disbar your own. But the point stands, you cry (oh the irony, baby) about perceived racism at the heart of comments in this thread and then minutes later make a comment which, psychologically-speaking is born from the same kind of ignorance and bigotry which informs racist opinion - namely xenophobia. The fact you can't see this is staggering. Also re: unconscious bias. The problem with that theory is it relies on mind reading and/or assumptions and similar to microaggressions is a product of faux science. I await your reply, coped and pasted - hyperlinks still present...
Garcia's footwork needs a fair bit of training sure But i think his biggest issue is how high he keeps his chin as seen against Campbell
Simple I saw your comments in the other post about Tank and JT. Leonard was asked questions about JT vs Tank and gave his opinion. Only on this forum has it been said Tank is negotiating to fight Dias but without corroboration but taken as gospel on here. JT is not even available to fight Tank so how can Tank be ducking him and neither did Ellerbe challenge JT he merely expressed his opinion on the outcome of it were to happen an opinion I share 100%. There has been a lot of anti-Tank comments on this forum and yes I ask where that has come from and several on here like you go on the defensive. The joke about being sent to Siberia is not Xenophobic but you chose to take it like that due to your reflex hubris. I think you doth protest to much. As for unconscious bias I have had to deal with this for years and have a good radar.Apart from an individual Only God knows genuinely what is in a man’s heart. My conscience is clear. I hope your is as well.
He is a knockout waiting to happen as per Tank chilling words on Mike Tyson podcast “ if it was me that hit him you know I would have killed him”.
Yes he has a great trainer who has improved but guys like Tank and Erroll Spence Jr have great outstanding trainers. Coach Calvin is excellent as is Derrick James.
